V5.2.8 - Add ability to right-click folder and open it in Explorer
(note that one file in the folder will be selected), make root for File Open
desktop - not drives, correct error when clicking on an empty selection, honour Windows text colour in the
list-box.

V6.0.2 - Allow TGA as animation batch file name extension (will save a sequence of TGA-32 images instead of an AVI file, honour "smooth animation" when saving as TGA sequence),
add 1920 x 1080 remapped image size, allow background file name to be specified as parameter
(parameter is: -BACKGROUND:<filename>, file types of .BMP and .JPG are accepted, if file path not specified, then executable folder is searched),
allow background-mode animation (only in batch mode, specify wildcard as the background file name e.g. background-??.bmp, would expect background-01.bmp to background-35.bmp (say) according to what files are found matching "??", list recycled when last file used
i.e. after "35" , use "01"), background mode updates (allow use of HRV-north full-width background image for different e.g. Europe sector data, when loading
bitmaps allow for non-standard Adobe BMP files), don't display error message in batch mode if AVI file missing,
add per-job option to specify the overlay path, annotation enhancements (provide control over text font, transparent text mode, control of date and time formats, UTC or local time display switch),
provide limited support for the new Dundee JPEG data formats (includes HRV north and south data
[channels "13" and "14"], animation and timestamp coded but not well tested,
midnight coded differently to other values!, WV channel numbered differently on GOES-10/11 to GOES-12, should include MSG-1 and MSG-2 variants, it may take some time to pick up all the things needing change
so please report items as you find them), add ITOT mask support (for EUMETSAT Web site new WEFAX mapping),
add support for MTSAT-1R Web site files (large size, Web site is: http://www.jma.go.jp/en/gms/large.html?area=6&element=2&mode=UTC, images are 800 pixel wide by 812 pixels high, only the large, full-disk images are currently supported, the three channel files need to be named like: 200606220300-00-IR.png, 200606220300-00-Vis.png, 200606220300-00-WV.png, these images are processed in a way which destroys thermal calibration, remapping
is supported), GOES-11 support (rename EUMETCast browser images to GOES-W and GOES-E, accept GOES11 instead of GOES10 in many places, accept G11 instead of G10 in many places, note that data from http://rsd.gsfc.nasa.gov/goes/ isn't yet spatially correct, far from well-tested), Meteosat-7 support for
IODC data over EUMETCast (recognise data later than 2006 Oct 06 is rectified to 57E, not well tested yet!),
on the Browse EUMETCast function - make Use Northern HRV the default, add support for GOES MSFC Conus land/sea mask,
add support for 10-minute Danish Rain Radar, add Reset button to job-setup (reset to factory defaults),
when importing a single job - add option to make that job current, grid line updates
(add 30 degree interval option, correct job-setup: grid interval labels wrong),
correct setup: was missing MaskGOES-W-gsfc-fullres mask, remember form state between runs,
position pop-up forms at main form centre.

V3.5.8 - Add support for WinRotor tracker,
add font-size option, update some station and country details, background
image enhancements (Options|Background image menu item added, option for
immediate refresh, automated update of background if file timestamp
changes, timestamp check interval can be set from 1 to 60 minutes, or
checks can be disabled, background redrawn shortly after form resize), add
alternate background image, support Google Earth for display of satellite
tracking point (experimental!), remember size and position between runs,
revise some form positions for multi-monitor operation.

V2.5.2 - Add control of delay time before
animation loops, correct 20-second and 45-second auto-switch menu, add
Transparent option for the city names. note that the names for GOES-E and
GOES-W have been changed, add option for double-height.

V1.2.6 - Add multi-language support (Dutch,
French & Italian included), provide separate Map View displays for
NOAA-17 and NOAA-18, program will automatically switch when new data
arrives, extend Map Views to show extended area covered by Svalbard, add
pass date & time and satellite name to Map Views, remove Tromsø
ground station (now replaced by Svalbard), make the AVHRR Browser use the
full-size thumbnail, clarify function of the Ground Stations tab, update
browse EUMETSAT schedule to button from label, provide pop-up hint with
station location on station name text, add Tools menu for the HRPT Reader
& WXtrack, be less tolerant of errors in processing, provide option to
continue even when processing errors occur (may result in program looping
on bad file), remember form size and position between runs, correct
Svalbard KSAT location (wrongly documented).

V3.5.0 - Fix memory leak with duplicate satellite
names, increase error-checking in MakePassDetails (where a direction other than N,
n, S, s is specified,
where the satellite name is mis-spelt), Les Hamilton updated the VB5 demo
(V6.0 update to make use of the function 'MakePassDetails').
V3.6.0 - add function MakePassDetails2 which includes the range rate, add
Java class and demo project from Henk Marais.

V2.5.2 - Add second Marker list (displayed only on the detailed image,
set per-channel, on the Advanced setup dialog, could use as home station marker with single-entry city list),
add note of satellite in program startup message, update DCP-IODC and WMO-IODC to reflect revised EUMETSAT names,
allow DCP etc. sequence numbers up to 9999, add thermal calibration for MSG-2
(unchecked), add option for 10-bit "north-only" save (PRO
version), update for GOES-11 data (no change of saved image file names, FSD image titles
re-labelled GOES-E & GOES-W), update for Met-7 move to IODC (save satellite location in output JPEG and PNG images,
output file names unchanged, relax input file name tolerances, no knowledge of new projections yet in detailed view
so mapping will be wrong and the land/sea masks, this is a transition
measure & will be updated when Met-7 is at IODC), try and save log files and images on Windows
closedown, change default to call GeoSatSignal with northern HRV image.

V2.5.0 - Change registration method (existing users have a reduced cost upgrade path,
users who registered during 2006 get a free upgrade), start support for MSG-2 (untested)
(Advanced Setup has choice of MSG-1/2/3/4 data, you must restart the program after changing this setting,
option to delete data from non-selected MSG satellites), add more Detail Image displays
(standard version has four, pro version has eight, right-click the thumbnail to access Detail-2 etc.),
add paletted colour option to Detail Image (accept 2 high by 100 or 316 pixel wide thermal LUTs,
accept 2 high by 256 pixel wide visible LUTs, requires that you copy the LUTs from GeoSatSignal
to the folder where MsgDataManager.exe lives, needs land/sea masks in the existing GeoSatSignal folder),
refine data retention control (separate control of text messages and daily logs,
MPEF: provide separate control of CRM and other data, SAF: separate control of SAF, Sea-Ice and LSA data,
sea-ice also includes ice_*.grb and multi_*.grb FTP data, allow retention periods up to 366 days),
add Tools, Remove stale data menu for purge on demand, include S-LSA and S-OSI_-KNMI files in SAF data purge,
support both old and new Met-5 & 7 file names for Open|Scan, extend DWDSAT support
(include grb01-lm_lm2 and grb01-gme_dwdsat data, unzip these from BZ2 format if Unzip Ch.1 files is set,
pkr_4dR0601101130.tif - these have a non-standard file name), support new ERS-SCAT data
(with files named ISX... and SCATT.... new SCAT folder for saved data,
separate control of data retention period), put KNMI files into correct dated-folders,
correct display of Meteosat-7 histograms.

V2.6.4 - Improved despeckle option, add
some recognition of TIROS-N and NOAA-11 data which may require file
extension set to .GACA for pre-1992 data, add support for Timestep 8-bit
DOS data format which requires the file extension .hrp8 and is only
supported in the registered version, support Rutgers L1B format, add
support for composite EUMETCast AVHRR file names, improved accuracy for
pre-KLM SST values when saved as binary, run in a TelliCast-friendly
manner, accept "CEM" as L1B processing centre, accept
"X1A" as L1B processing centre, accept non-standard CLUT files
from Adobe with two extra bytes at the end of the .BMP file, Stations.dat
updated add more cites and to highlight EUMETSAT HRPT stations (thanks: Gérard
Kruger), add support for GSHHS V1.3 format data.

V1.2.2 - Add browser from which you can show
thumbnail images or launch the HRPT Reader or delete unwanted thumbnail
images and AVHRR data, add Tromsø station (until replaced by Svalbard),
display pass details when clicked, allow for larger fonts in the pass
lists, add File=>Start Monitoring menu item, in the event log revise
pass time to pass date & time in new-pass header, on the progress
label: number minutes from 1, not from 0, allow the log file to be 2000
lines before trimming, warn if user disables "delete files from
RX".

V1.3.2 - Add support for southern- and
northern-hemisphere polar data, add option to set where interactive
animations are saved (-SAVE continues to control this in batch mode),
shrink the larger animations to fit when viewing.

V1.1.0 - First public version, clarify acceptance of multi-satellite Kepler data (e.g.
NOAA.txt), also look for Keps folder in current directory, correct Setup
-> Kepler -> Auto when detecting a single file. V1.2.0 -
adapt for new-style EUMETSAT file names with no pass numbers, requires
that you must have valid Kepler data, simplify output file name
format, accept -START as a parameter, make folder browse root the desktop
- not drives, enhanced false-colour image from satellite, handle Windows
shutdown event without manual intervention, add iconic display of EUMETSAT
ground stations - move the mouse over a station to see its name, add
pass-list tab showing all five stations, add option to keep raw segments
for further processing, add option to save thumbnail with combined data,
use image "_background.jpg" if present as map view background.

V1.0.2 - Accept -HISTO, -SAVE and -CLOSE
parameters, -HISTO provides histogram equalisation, -SAVE saves the image
as a .BMP file, -CLOSE forces the program to close, if -CLOSE specified
the program runs hidden and errors will not stop the program, -SAVE
can accept a filename such as -SAVE:picture.bmp, keystrokes
<escape>, Q or q will close the program.

V3.5.4 - Add support for R2FX receiver, when
waking up tracker, set it to 1 degree elevation - not zero, add option to
track only passes which are in the pass list, add automatic daily Kepler
reload option.
